This unique book explores the varied perspectives on contemporary
processes of rural transformation and policy intervention in China.
The expert contributors combine a critical review of current
theoretical viewpoints and global debates with a series of case
studies that document the specificities of China?s pathways to
change. Central issues focus on the dynamics of state?peasant
encounters; the diversification of labour and livelihoods;
out-migration and the blurring of rural and urban scenarios; the
significance of issues of ?value? and ?capital? and their gender
implications; land ownership and sustainable resource management;
struggles between administrative cadres and local actors; and the
dilemmas of ?participatory? development.Rural Transformations and
Development ? China in Context will prove a fascinating and
stimulating read for academics and researchers in the areas of
Asian studies, development and agriculture, and public policy.
